Here is a quick spinach salad that anyone can make (I can make it, is a good clue !) :

Ingredients :

Pure Organic Baby Spinach, 3 oz

Strawberries – Raw, 3 medium (1-1/4″ dia)

Mixed Nuts (Planters – Deluxe With Sea Salt) – About 10 pieces

Blueberries – 10

Kraft Seven Seas – Green Goddess Dressing – 1 or 2 drops

Sweet Chilli Sauce (Mae Ploy) : 1/2 tbsp (optional)

Just put out a bed of spinach on a plate. Add strawberries, nuts, blueberries and optional dressings. You can also substitute with your choice of berries and (fat free) dressing.

Spinach is alkaline in nature and hence it is great for you if you are on a higher protein diet. This salad is great as a lunch “first step” . Eat your grilled chicken or fish after this, and you have eaten a healthy, nutritionally balanced and filling lunch under 400 calories!
